1
I went to the country just the other day
2
To see my uncle Bill and sorta pass the time away
3
I asked him how he'd been since last, I'd passed his way
4
He rubbed his chin, here's what he had to say
5
My wife's been sick, the young ones, too
6
And I'm darn near down with the flu
7
The cow's gone dry and them hens won't lay
8
But we're still a-livin', so everything's okay
9
The hogs took the cholera and they've all done died
10
The bees got mad and they left the hive
11
The weevils got the corn and the rain rotted the hay
12
But we're still a-livin', so everything's okay
13
The porch rotted down that's more expense
14
The darned old mule he tore down the fence
15
The mortgage is due and I can't pay
16
But we're still a-livin', so everything's okay
17
The cow broke in the field and eat up the beans
18
The darn rabbits they got the turnip greens
19
And my ma-in-law just moved in to stay
20
But we're still a-livin', so everything's okay
21
My land's so poor so hard and yeller
22
You have to set on a sack of fertilizer to raise an umbreller
23
And it rains out here nearly every day
24
But we're still a-livin', so everything's okay
25
The wells gone dry and I have to tote the water
26
Up from the spring about a mile and a quarter
27
My helper, he quit for the lack of pay
28
But we're still a-livin', so everything's okay
29
The house it leaks it needs a new top
30
When it rains it wets everything we got
31
The chimney fell down just yesterday
32
But we're still a-livin', so everything's okay
33
The corn meals gone and the meat's run out
34
Got nothin' to kill to put in the smokehouse
35
The preacher's comin' Sunday to spend the day
36
But we're still a-livin', so everything's okay
37
The canned stuffs spoiled else the jar's got broke
38
And all we got left is one old Billy goat
39
We're gonna have a new baby about the first of may
40
But we're still a-livin', so everything's okay
41
My crop it rotted in the ground
42
I asked for another loan but the banker turned me down
43
But we're still a-livin' and we're prayin' for better days
44
So after all, everything's in pretty good shape
